Parent-Teen Online Workshop

Parent-Teen Online Workshop Friday evening (parents only) & Saturday (parents and teens) from all over Ontario.

This workshop was designed by Drs. Paul and Nancy Aikin, clinical psychologists and Directors of the Sacramento-Davis EFT Center which utilizes “Dr. Sue Johnson’s empirically validated concepts of love modified to fit the love and relationships in families. This is an educational, enrichment program designed to strengthen the bonds between teens and parents. With the help of exercises, structured conversations, and group support, families will grow an appreciation of how to rely on each other. During these teen years, it is normal for families to have times of not getting along. This is an opportunity for families to talk – to figure out how to work better together. This workshop is a time for parents and teens to learn from one another that they are not alone in their challenges.”.

This workshop is for families with teens between the ages of 12 and 16 (some exceptions may be made). We are only accepting 4 families due to space, at an introductory fee of $400.

 
 

Hold Me Tight Couple Retreat Online

Hold Me Tight Couple Retreat Online two days. Saturday & Sunday couples met from all over Ontario.  Couples will be pre-screened to make sure the group will meet their needs. 

Hold Me Tight® was created by Dr. Sue Johnson who was one of original founders of Emotion Focused Couple Therapy (EFT couples), which has been founded on the research of couples over 25 years.  It is based on the book that includes seven conversations designed to deepen a couples’ connection with each other.  The program includes lectures, video examples of other couples & YouTube clips.  Following this, you will have worksheets to learn to identify your negative cycle as a couple in your communication as part of private tasks for your couple to work on during the course.  

Following identifying your patterns of negative cycle, partners will then have a chance to work on new ways of communication that build "trust, love, and intimacy”.  NO group participation is required as learning will be in a group but tasks will be privately done with your partner! 

We are only accepting 4 couples due to space, at an introductory fee of only $400 per couple.
